Timney vs savage trigger - Timney Triggers Savage Accutrigger Trigger

Robert's Review of Timney Triggers Savage Accutrigger Trigger
If you own a Savage rifle with the accutrigger on a model 10 bolt action rifle, this is the replacement trigger to use.
It is not the trigger for the A17 model rifles.
If you try to set the trigger pull weight to minimum with a accutrigger, a problem can arise where the firing pin gets blocked when the trigger is pulled. The interposer will not allow the firing pin to hit the primer with enough force for the round to go off. This is indicated by a mark on the primer (small dimple). This has happened with several different shooters using my rifles.
The Timney replacement works very well, BUT you may have to set the sear engagement screw for more engagement of the sear. This is necessary if with the safety fully engaged, the trigger is not fully locked out.
I have replaced the Savage accutrigger with the Timney trigger on all of my Savage models 10-12 with great success (8 rifles).
Very easy to install.
Pros:
As described
